27th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four 1m2f wins (three on soft) in 2023 but she ran moderately last year on both races on heavy; not seen this year until August and uncompetitive both starts, with minimal response from the handicapper, so others are preferred. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Threatened on AW and turf in the spring but his last two efforts have been below par (C&D latterly); feasibly handicapped but others are more persuasive. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Not at his best two weeks ago but he had been threatening on both AW and turf beforehand; on a dangerous mark and he can't be discounted. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

On a long losing sequence but twice went close on AW earlier this year and he was denied a clear run when 2l fourth of 11 at Newmarket (7f, good) last month; seems versatile ground-wise; might not be far away. |

Encouraging start for new stable culminated in Windsor success in April; has failed to back up that form in two starts since, last of three runners latest; rebound required. |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Low-key effort at Windsor four weeks ago but she'd begun her life with this yard with three good efforts, notably a 1m2f Windsor success on fast turf; considered. |
11/2 |

5th 10 (11) |
26th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has shown steadily progressive form (421) this term for new yard, gaining a narrow win over C&D (good to firm) most recently; however, she's been campaigned largely in lower grades and now goes into deeper waters; got upset in stalls and was withdrawn at Newbury ten days ago. |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Runner-up at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) last month on second handicap start and has won his next two (1m4f/1m6f, good to soft/heavy); has travelled really well for those wins and he could have more left in the tank for trainer who has won two of the last four runnings (also saddles Lordship). |

1st 7 (4) |
2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has improved plenty since handicapping, getting off the mark by nearly 5l at Ascot (1m4f, good to soft) last Friday; has a good chance of staying the longer trip on breeding and 6lb penalty is unlikely to stop him if he's in the same form. |

Last three wins, including two for Ryan Kavanagh last spring, have come over further; back in form when arguably an unlucky loser at Wolverhampton on Tuesday (extended 2m) and his claims are obvious off the same mark. |

Generally disappointing since winning twice (once over C&D) last May but encountered traffic when fifth (behind Belle Of KT) over 1m6f here a fortnight ago and continues to lurk on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |

9st 4lb |
Won three in a row at up to 1m on turf (good/good to firm) last summer but not in the same form this season and down the field in last four runs; now 1lb lower than for latest win but major upturn in form needed. |

9th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Respectable third on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in March but he's taken backward steps in his three runs since and was tailed off at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) last time; mark continues to fall but he needs to turn things around; blinkers (tried on second start) go back on. |

This is his third start for his third trainer; ran well in 1m2f handicaps (on soft/good to soft) on last two outings but he looks exposed compared to some of these and needs some improvement to get off the mark. |

Limited Flat maiden; a hint of promise when beaten 12l in her second handicap at Southwell (2m4f, good) and the tongue-tie tried next time (tailed off) is soon dispensed with; any case to be made is not a solid one. |
